Rails - Apr 2006 - problem with environmental variables and FastCGI

Hi,

I''m trying to deploy my app using FastCGI, and I have a problem.  The
application
works correctly in either FastCGI or CGI mode (toggling between
dispatch.fcgi and 
dispatch.cgi in my public/.htaccess file) except that under regular CGI, my 
ENV hash is correctly set, but under FastCGI, the ENV hash is completely
empty.  I 
thought that environment variables were automatically passed to the FastCGI
app 
as if it was a regular CGI application.

Can someone help?

Thanks,

Stan McFarland

More info:

I can access the environmental variables from the controller or the view by
using @request.env - this has the environment populated successfully. 
Here''s my problem, though.  I need to be able to access the environment
from
a method in a model, and @request is not defined in the model.   As I said
earlier, ENV is defined via CGI, which I *can* refer to in the model, but
it''s not defined if I use FastCGI.

Any suggestions?  I''m desperate.  ;)
